Research interests

Microorganisms are crucial for the functioning of every environment on Earth; even those found in the extreme environments of the cryosphere.

I'm fascinated by the ability of microbial communities to consume and cycle chemical elements within glacial environments, in spite of the cold, nutrient poor and challenging light conditions that they can face. Communities throughout these environments are connected through hydrological flows, so what happens in one area of the glacier has the potential to impact downstream glacial habitats, or adjoining periglacial, fjord and marine environments. As climate warming continues to redesign these extensive, temperature sensitive ice masses, I'm intrigued to study the regional and global ecological consequences of this escalating event.

Dr Karen Cameron and Dr Oliver Müller collecting microbial samples from the surface of a glacier and from a subglacial river outflow in Arctic Sweden

My research focuses on:

  • The role that microorganisms play in facilitating the flow of chemical elements into and through glacial systems and their connected downstream environments.
  • The geobiological relationship between microbial communities and their glacial or periglacial habitats.
  • The distribution and connectivity of glacial microbial communities locally, regionally and globally, and the implications of this on ecological function.
  • The relationship between the environment and microbial community function, and the impact that climate warming may have on the future ecology of cryospheric systems.
